Satellite
The Lift Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I don't have to give you everything i've got
But i think i will
I don't need to try hard to make you laugh a lot
So i think i'll go deeper and deeper
Deeper and deeper
Deeper with my trust
Deeper in your eyes
Deeper all the time
I keep waiting to meet your evil side
Seems to me you're the happiest girl alive
So let's put a kingdom near the sun
Together we'll shine on everyone
Let's put a kingdom near the sun
Together we'll shine our hearts out
Just because
Our love satellites
We don't have to give in and follow all the rules
So i think we won't
Try and stop us, try and stop us, even if we're fools
We're gonna go deeper and deeper
Deeper and deeper
Deeper with our trust
Deeper in your eyes




Deeper all the time
Chorus
